Alan said "dogby do you think that secular laws should take priority over religious laws? yes or no answer please"
no secular laws should take priority. Actually, like most here, I think the Burqa and Hajib are ridiculous. However, I will defend the right of anyone to wear one, or any other piece of religious dress, if they choose. And the secular laws agree with me.
In this case, there is no conflict between secular law and religious law. The woman lied. She should be charged and prosecuted with that, and she was. However, 6 months is an over the top sentence for such a lie. The fact that she is an Muslim is largely irrelevant.
